“Where Life is Worth Living” is the motto for our Webster community. Where better to live and enjoy the magnificent sunsets over Lake Ontario or the waterfront activities including canoeing, sailing, fishing and swimming on Irondequoit Bay? Our community is fortunate to be the fastest growing suburb in Monroe County. Housing is affordable, shopping is diverse and accessible, and activities for couples, families, seniors and singles abound in our exceptional Parks and Recreation Department. Excellent Schools, excellent dining, beautiful public parks - and less than fifteen minutes from the center of Rochester make Webster more than appealing!

Founded in 1840, less than three years after Daniel Webster spoke publically about the economy, local farmers from North Penfield petitioned the state legislature for separate town status from Penfield and named the new town in his honor. From an initial population of 2235 residents, our community has grown to over 40,000!

Our Town and Village of Webster proudly recognize our schools: 7 public elementary, 3 private elementary, 2 middle schools and 2 high schools, and our dedication to our sports programs! Webster was awarded the title of # 1 Sports Town in NY by Sports Illustrated in May 2005! We enjoy two lighted stadiums, a hockey/soccer complex, indoor track and Olympic size indoor pool!

Having our own Police Department, Town Hall, and an exceptional Public Library adds to the overall safety, comfort and well-being of our residents. As we continue to grow, we still maintain a “small town” ambiance and sense of community. Whether you’re young or old, there is always something to do or someplace to go to thoroughly enjoy the spirit of Webster!
